Dear Shelby,
Thanks for the pictures & letter. What kind of tree is that in the one picture?
I think it takes about 3 weeks for eggs to hatch. It does for chickens so I suppose it is about the same for ducks. There is a pair just outside my window this morning. Just sitting there. They mate for life just like geese do. I hope she's not going to nest there as they cut that grass every week. She would be better off up on the slope in the vetch.
I didn't read "The Straw Hat". I'll look for it. I am reading a very good one now called "Facets" by Barbara Delinsky. I can hardly put it down, it is so good. I found it in our library.
I had to explain that cartoon I sent you to Ruth. She finally got it!
I cleaned my oven yesterday. It will take me a week to recuperate! I tire very quickly. I used another Oven Off spray that works great. Spray it on and in just 2 hours wipe it off. It is in a blue can. I sat on a very low stool & then had a hard time getting back up.
I finally got my summer tops out and now I must press them all!
We had 96F temperatures for the last 3 days. Now it is down to the low 70s and feels great!
Ruth is going to Oklahoma the end of July. Ray sent her a ticket.
I watched "The Firm" the other night. I have read all of his books except "The Pelican Brief" and I bought that for 25 cents at the library book sale. I like his first one the best "A Time to Kill".
Well hon, I better get this down to the mailbox, so write when you can & take care. Love to Jack!
Love always,
Grandma
